On April 24, 2024, the Higher School of Economics of Astana International University held a round table on the topic «Adaptability of the economy: theoretical and practical aspects». The round table was held as part of an international scientific and practical conference. 13 people spoke at the round table, including 11 doctors of science and professors. They represented a number of leading universities in Kazakhstan (Al-Farabi Kazakh National University, Maqsut Narikbayev University, AlmaU), quasi-state organizations (“KazakhInvest”, “Institute of Economic Research” of the Ministry of National Economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan) and research centers.
The participants discussed the monograph by Doctor of Economic Sciences M. Kazhyken “Model of Adaptive Economy”. The speakers expressed their opinions on three key points:
• adaptability is a property of the modern economy
• economic adaptability is ensured by economic institutions
• economic adaptability is the adaptability of entrepreneurship.
As a result of the round table, a resolution was adopted that supported the idea of creating a scientific economic school at Astana International University. It is proposed to hold the next round table in the fall of 2024 to continue the discussion of the theoretical aspects of the adaptive economy model.
